The hero failed. The man who wielded the Heavenly Sword charged in without thinking and got himself killed for it. In the final battle where the Demon King and his army marched against the alliance of Humans, Dwarves, and Elves his death was the turning point. The Alliance began to falter as soldiers from Elite Royal Guard to lowly foot soldier began to route.
Yet even as the rest of the supposed forces of Good began to flee a lone spearmen continued to march forward. In his eyes he could see the Demon King in front of him, cutting down more and more of his fleeing comrades. Also in front of him was the Heavenly sword itself, planted into the ground and still shining with brilliance.
With a sense of duty fueling him he grabbed the Heavenly Sword, brandishing it in a battle ready stance even if the magic power within the weapons lashed out at him in rejection. Growling a battle-cry the worn and weary infantrymen charged at the Demon King as the dark lord looked in both surprise and amusement.
This was you.
The fight itself was decidedly one-sided as the Demon easily overpowered you after every single desperate attack but even so you, the spearmen who merely was taught how to hold a spear and given thin cast iron armor continued to stand and fight.
And somehow you won.
With sudden ferocity you swung the divine weapon with all of his might, cutting a large gash in the Demon King's torso, the dark lord faltering just enough that you ran the heavenly sword right through his heart.
After that it was a blur.
